Groundbreaking Event @ Trump International Hotel

Groundbreaking Event @ Trump International Hotel

Challenge:
RCI Systems was contracted to provide AV support for the groundbreaking of the new Trump International Hotel Washington DC, to include microphone press feeds to the many national and local press outlets. The main challenge was appropriately amplifying and feeding audio from the “Congress Bells” located 15 stories up in a bell tower. Moreover, this audio needed to be clean enough to feed to the many press outlets in attendance.

RCI Solution:
RCI Systems was able to strategically place 4 microphones in the Bell Tower with long cable runs spanning the 15 stories from the Bell Tower to the mix position. This audio, along with the podium microphone were all sent to a press mult, providing a flawless audio feed used specifically during Live Broadcasting of the event.
